The Audi A3 is celebrated for its remarkable driving comfort and highlights a number of design awards. AutoUncle has 4,830 attractive options ready for you in the UK, each one sourced from an online marketplace or dealership website.
A used Audi A3 costs between £3,150 for the cheapest variant and £32,995 for the most expensive model.
There are five main elements which play a crucial role in what a pre-owned Audi A3 might cost: year, engine size and power, fuel economy of the car, how far the car has already travelled and equipment.
For instance, a car that is newer and has fewer miles on the clock will typically command a higher price. In the same vein, models at the higher end, replete with luxurious features or more robust engines, generally come with a more substantial price tag than a used model with many kilometres on the odometer and in a simple equipment variant.
The following equipment variants are the most populare ones for the Audi A3:
While calculating the cost of a used Audi A3, it's key to evaluate vehicles with equivalent engines and accessories. If you don't, you might draw an inaccurate conclusion about which car to buy.
For the Audi A3, petrol is the most favored fuel.
Fuel options for Audi A3:
In the process of choosing a fuel type, don’t overlook the importance of your driving habits. What's your typical weekly driving mileage? Are your trips usually short or do they cover longer distances?
If your trips are mostly short, electric, plug-in hybrid or petrol may make the most sense. For daily long-distance driving, the electric car is often ideal - especially with a charger at home or at work. If you have a daily commute over longer distances, a modern electric car can be a great choice - especially if you have access to charging at home or at work. For those who drive long distances and don't have access to charging, diesel cars can still be an option. Note that in some countries, high-emission diesel engines have been banned from entering certain cities.
Hatchback is the preferred body type amongst drivers of the Audi A3. Hatchbacks are compact cars that pair great driving with the flexibility of having space. High fuel efficiency makes hatchbacks popular with people living in cities, as does the fact that they’re easy to park.
While being very popular, the German car has some competitors.
